I am done creating accounts for free sites. If it's free I shouldn't need to.

Why does an podcast app need all my information like my postcode and telephone number???? And why does it not support export files from other podcast apps??? No thanks Globel Player and Sony. I will not give you all my details. Deleted.

Ad breaks too long
Ad breaks too long. If they were shorter, I probs wouldn't switch stations.

Not accessible for blind people using large text It cuts the buttons off the bottoms of the page because the text is large and doesn't allow you to scroll down to accept t and c to continue using the app.

Frequently crashes, causing my whole phone to become unresponsive and slow until I force close it.

Incredible how unfit for purpose this app is. I am an overseas listener, so I don't know if that is affecting the app but it is completely unusable for Catch-up or Global's own podcasts. Podcasts from other companies do work on Global Player, just not Global's own. It's been like this for months. Amateurish in the extreme .

When the phone locks the live radio stations stop and it starts buffering. When unlocking and waking the app back up it works again. Feels unstable and can't listen to it unless you have your phone in your hand and jeep it unlocked. It kind of defeats the object.

Used to be a cracking app, but now since recent update, keeps crashing on live player, unable to restart a live station and skip through bits like i used to. Overall updates have made this unusable and frustrating!

A buggy mess. Seems to randomly pause and then the skip 30 secs button stops working. Then will just hang on a white screen. Much worse than the ios version. Podcasts work well though.
